I chose not to watch the video - £7m for Martins Indi seems like a good deal, mind.

That Portugese ebola rag again? Fuck sake, never gonna happen.

When he goes to reach at the end.

*bedwetter alert* We're fucked.

I wonder how many he's blocked for giving him abuse. I know I can add my name to that list.

Surprised Spurs didn't go in for Sandro Ramirez tbh, he would have been excellent back-up to Kane.

If it's the lack of manoeuvring that is stopping us from signing players that will keep us in the league, progressing as a club and keeping the TV money rolling in, you can blame him and you should blame him.

If he'd flog them on the cheap and subsidise a part their wages it wouldn't be a problem. As I've said before, he wants the best of both worlds. Get a half-decent transfer fee and get their wages covered.

Is it? Are you actually staggering around? The local lads that spring to mind are adored and legends. Shearer, Beardsley, Waddle, Gazza, Ben Arfa. The shite ones are called out for being shite, not for being local. Easy myth to bust. HBA, local hero.

A lad who plays poker at my local works for Move Residential on the Wirral, he said that Naby Keita's agent has been on the phone organising property viewings. Looks like as long as Barca stump up for Coutinho that Liverpool will definitely sign up Keita (and I suppose Van Dijk too), unless they're looking at just signing him regardless of what happens. Also heard that his odds have went down from 8/1 to 5/2 for him to join Liverpool too. Haven't bothered checking any of this myself though.

So did anyone see the thread about Kenedy the footballer joining NUFC on loan from Chelsea, and think about Kenedy the footballer joining NUFC on loan from Chelsea and not a completely different Kenedy? Or was it just me?

That'll be Skeletor.

+2nd season syndrome too. I think Burnley could be in serious trouble. Fingers crossed as gives us a better chance of not being relegated...

So essentially what it looks like was that (as many "conspiracy theorists" aka people who know what Ashley is like, said) the Chinese takeover thing was basically just a smokescreen to do no business and hold things up unnecessarily.

Yep, also insinuating that he's been lied to as I remember him saying clearly that we needed to act quickly in the market (even before the window) opens to get some additions in as the longer you go on, the more desperate we look and teams will look to exploit. Fat Mike and his cronies obviously know better than a world-class football manager, though.

? Of course there isn't, if anything it's only going to get higher. What idiot would think that?

Big Al just looking at him like

Hatem-esque from Vasquez. Pls sign him.

20-25mil on Perez and Gibbs would be money very well spent IMO. Fucking ridiculous we're falling behind still.

"I will have no qualms in saying if there is a substitution that has unbalanced a team." So basically if someone doesn't sub their left back for another left back they're gonna get pelters from Pards.

You do realize I'm not talking about the fact that it's Neymar? It's more about the match, the fact that Chapecoense were invited to play after their plane crash where 71 people lost their lives and some of the Barcelona fans apparently thought it was a good idea to sing about wishing a player to die in that moment. At not getting the Simpsons joke, not the post.

Our hands aren't tied, we could actively try to push them out and even subsidise a part of their wages to avoid making too much of a loss on them. Ashley wants his cake and to eat it, he wants to sell them and make the maximum possible on them, yet is never willing to spend even half of this 'maximum' desire he has to sell players for as much pittance as he can get on actually signing players that will make him more money in the long run by staying and competing in the league. This window has been an absolute joke so far, if we don't have a decent 'keeper and Lucas Perez by the end of the window it will be an absolute disaster that maybe even Rafa can't save us from.

Sounds like a waste of money to me. I know we're desperate but howay, man. This a fucking joke.

Was going through my FB and was howling at some lad talking about the money for Neymar being 'pure mental' just because he'd never played in the PL and how Alexis Sanchez is a far better player. The quote of "stick Sanchez in for Real or Barca and see he'd tear the league apart"... I didn't have the heart to tell him the reason why Sanchez is at Arsenal now.
